Latent Prints – v5

Latent prints of the Potter
invisible to the naked eye;
But still there written
God’s hands leaving a mark.

Pressed into my clay
the fingers of the Potter;
The loops, the arches, the whorls
are visible only within me.

In my inmost parts,
ridge patterns evident, God’s touch;
God molding my dust
with His hands, with His fingers.

God’s mark upon me
deep within, lasting;
Latent prints there too
if we would only see.
